Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service Bird Monitoring in the Southern Plains, Sonoran Desert, and Chihuahuan Desert Networks 2010-2011 funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIJ2122107009) is a National Park Service discretionary grant notice that serves as a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive cooperative agreement award. The work falls under the Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) framework and is tied to bird monitoring activities across three NPS monitoring networks covering the Southern Plains, Sonoran Desert, and Chihuahuan Desert regions during the 2010-2011 period. The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is structured specifically as a cooperative agreement, meaning the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared with a standard grant.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications and is not open for competitive submission. Instead, it documents the government intent to proceed with a single-source award in accordance with DOI policy (cited as DOI 505 DM 2.12C), which is the departmental authority that allows certain financial assistance awards to be made noncompetitively when justified. The named recipient for this single-source award is the Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory, and the notice indicates that only one award is expected.
From a funding standpoint, the estimated total funding is listed as $66,000, with no stated award ceiling or floor (both are shown as 0, which typically indicates the agency is not using those fields to constrain the award amount beyond the total estimate provided). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award. The listing shows a CFDA number of 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which usually signals that the activity is being reported in a way that does not map cleanly to a single standard CFDA program code in the posted record.
The administrative timeline indicates the opportunity was posted and created on August 5, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 10, 2010, and an archive date of September 9, 2010. In practical terms, because this is a notice of intent for a noncompetitive, pre-identified recipient, the short open period functions more as a public posting and documentation step than a window for proposal submissions from the general public.
For those needing access to the full announcement or supporting materials, the contact listed is William Tallbull, Grant/Agreement Specialist, at 303-969-2891, with instructions to reach out if there are difficulties accessing the full announcement electronically.
